Shawls & scarves

These are some of the scarves & shawls I wove. I swear never to weave mohair again or learn to do it better. My husband hacked up fur balls for days :(

The first 2 scarves are mohair with several combinations of wefts. They're the same warp but the wefts make them look so diffrent :)



















The shawl is a dark brown alpaca weft with the border of a lovely golden mohair/silk blend (which looks kinda yellow here). The rest of the weft are some handspuns & commercial yarns I had in shades of rusts & reds.

The pattern's from Marguerite Davison's book.

ACK!! It's late. Gotta turn in.

Nice scarves. I've never had much interest in weaving, but your work, plus the stuff I saw at Rhinebeck, is piquing my interest.
